I've had my fractured leg in a cast for 6 days. I've been doing anti thrombotic belly shots daily because of that. Yesterday I started feeling off, a little lightheaded my heart rate was 120-130, blood oxygen was 93-95. I went to the ER, d dimers were 0.44, they also did a ct angiography which was clear (no embolism). This whole thing lasted like 8 hours. Then I slept normally at night. Today I woke up at 8 am and at like 2 pm was kinda sleepy, tried to get some sleep but the moment I started drifting off I stopped breathing, "woke up" taking a deep breath (gasping most likely). Measured blood oxygen, it showed 91-92 then after like 5 secs went back to normal. And it's been like that since (it's 1 am now) the moment I drift off to sleep my body stops breathing, I "wake up" gasping, my heart feels like someone jumpscared me, then after 1 minute the same thing happens. Wtf do I do? This is seriously the worst experience I've had in my life and it won't go away. I'll probably go to the ER again but I'm afraid they'll send me home. This is suicide angle.

Hi everyone.

35 male.

I recently fell off my bike and got a fracture on my knee. I've had these stretch marks for almost a year and they haven't faded. A friend of mine after I got the fracture pointed that this could be Cushing's (hence the stretch marks and the fractured bone from a simple bike fall). I had no clue about this disease and now I can't even get a urine test cause I've read that trauma can alter cortisol test results and that I should wait at least 2-3 weeks. I'm in a cast right now anyway so I can't visit the doc but I wanted to share the photos and ask if they look like Cushing's stretch marks ( from what I've searched on the internet they do). I'm overweight at 103 kg and 180cm height.
